the signal returning from the phone has. If this value is negative for more than 5 sec then the system will make a cell switch.

The Service provider (SP) lock is used to lock the cell phone to the SP's SIM card. Once the cell phone is locked to a specific operator, if one inserts a SIM card from a different operator the phone will refuse to accept it! The cell phone will however accept another SIM card from the same operator.

Here's a program that generates the lock/unlock codes for the alcatel phones (One Touch Easy ..)
NB. The program may not work with 203 & newer versions of the software.
Instructions for unlock.exe
Once you enter your IMEI, you got 2 codes, ON, OFF plus phone type. ON is the code for turning on the SIMLOCK. We don't wanna do that, right? :-) So let's go for the OFF code. This is supposed to be the one to remove the SIMLOCK, but it's incomplete, at least for the network providers in Spain. This number, as you have seen, is in HEX format. I think it's a kind of universal code in which any netword provide add another fixed number (always the same) and the correct UNLOCK CODE is the sum of both of them. Let's see this in an example.
IMEI: 330020536226XXX
ON: 50453d90
OFF: 10453d90
Phone type: Alcatel HC800
Network provider: E MOVISTAR (214-07)
If we introduce the OFF code, the phone won't accept it. We have to add another number to this code. In Spain and for 214-07 (MoviStar) this is 9FDFFA. So we have to sum this numbers. The easier way is by loading the windows's calc, use the Hex mode and realize the sum 10453d90+9FDFFA=10E51D8A 10E51D8A is the right number. So we type this in our phone and ... the SIMLOCK is removed
